I Am With You Always is the theme of this first year of a day to celebrate the older generations. This scene depicts Joachim's Dream by Giotto. St. Joachim, husband of St. Anne (mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary) and grandparents to Jesus. Joachim is being visited by an angel to tell him of his impending fatherhood after being childless into his advanced years. Today we honor and recognize the role that our grandparents and all the elderly play in our church and lives.
